On Old Olympus Towering Top A Fin and German Viewed Some Hops
Olfactory, Optic, Oculomotor, Trochlear, Trigeminal, Abducens, Facial, Vestibulocochlear, Glossopharyngeal, Vagus, Accessory, and Hypoglossal
Some say Marry Money But My Brother Says Big Brains Matter More

Sensory cranial nerves help a person see, smell, and hear. Motor cranial nerves help control muscle movements in the head and neck.
Cranial Nerve I
Gave me a whiff, sensory nerve gives me a sniff, olfactory sensory is the way
Cranial Nerve II
2nd nerve helps me see right central and peripheral sight, sensory nerve for my eyes, optic nerve is the way
Cranial Nerve III
Pupils constricting, third nerve eyes are moving (up and down), prevent eyes drooping (ptosis), ocular nerve
Cranial Nerve IV
Trochlear nerve is the superior oblique (muscles) hard to look down if its weak
Cranial Nerve V
Trigeminal nerve works mastication, its sensory and motor, deals with face sensations
Cranial Nerve VI
Abducens is the 6th, does the eye abduction (eyes move side to side), motor nerve help prevent double vision
Cranial Nerve VII
Facial nerve is the seventh, does the facial expressions, its sensory and motor and two-thirds of taste sensations
Cranial Nerve VIII
Vestibulocochlear eighth nerve body balancer, used for the ear, sounds sensor, it sensory
Cranial Nerve IX
Glossopharyngeal nerve senses taste from the one-third, back of the tongue from the ninth nerve, it helps us swallow hey
Cranial Nerve X
Vagus, let’s us speak and says stuff (gag reflex), custard only if dysphagia, it’s sensory and motor baby
Cranial Nerve XI
Accessory Nerve is the eleventh, so shrug your shoulders and test head resistance
Cranial Nerve XII
Hypoglossal nerve deals with tongue movement
